Your distance from lightning varies directly with the time it takes you to
hear thunder. If you hear thunder 10 seconds after you see the lightning,
you are about 2 miles from the lightning. Estimate how many seconds it
would take for the thunder to travel a distance of 4 miles? *

Answer:

d = 1/5t

Step-by-step explanation:

Since it is a direct variation , Let d represent the distance and t represent the time ,then

d ∝ t

introducing the proportionality constant, we have

d = kt

Substituting t = 10 and d = 2 , we have

2 = 10k

k = 1/5

substitute k = 1/5 into the original equation , we have

d = 1/5t
